Back to School

It's here. . . first day back at school. I just got home from dropping Kristen off. Today she starts 3rd grade! Yesterday I noticed on my 'timeline' (the older posts that show up on the bottom of each post) that one of them was from Aug 08. I clicked on it and it was the first day of school last year! Gosh, looking back Kristen sure has grown up since then. You can CLICK HERE to see that post and compare the photos with the ones I took this morning.

Last year Kristen was all in to Pokemon (backpack, lunchbox etc). This year it's ICarly!

ICarly T-shirt (the long arm thingy gloves came with it!)

ICarly backpack!
And yes, those are ICarly shoes she's wearing!


I'll be back later with another post about my 'sewing class'. Off to get more coffee now and make a 'plan of action' for the day!

Hi Sis, can't believe Kristen is back at school and in 3rd grade, doesn't time pass quickly. We go back in a fortnight, Ben will be in Year 1.
We all had a lovely day out in Telford last week so hopefully post some pics soon.
Love ya xx

how time flies. I can't believe the children are back at school in your part of the world already! I think the kids here have another two weeks left and then they're back too. This summer really does seem to have whizzed by.

Love the photos. K doesn't seem to have any first day nerves! That's good.

I'll try to pop back later to read about your sewing class. If not, I'll be back tomorrow. Have a lovely day xx

Hi Denise, what great photos, Kristen looks so great & she has a huge backpack so I guess she's eager to lean & more. Kids have been back to school for almost 3 weeks here, they started August 5 & 6. I hope your sewing lesson went well. Enjoy your longer days, hugs

Okay, I'm officially out of touch with school age kids now... I don't even know who ICarly is?!? Hannah Montana, I know. Yes, Kiki does look more mature this year. Hope her first day went well!

Yes, that was a mistake writing the day after instead of the day before. I always wondered if Kali was really born on 9-11 but they didn't want to admit to that as tho we might think it was bad luck. (((Hugz)))

Hi Denise, Kristen is so pretty and growing up fast. I bet you will get good use from your tote. Will you be using if for knitting?

I'm with Darylynn... who the heck is iCarly? lol

Kiki looked cute all dolled up in her tweenage gear. She sure is growing up fast & looking more like you every year ;-)
